Journal ArticleDOI
Conformation of the Bax C‐terminus regulates subcellular location and cell death
TL;DR: The properly mutated C‐terminus of Bax can target a non‐relevant protein to the mitochondria, showing that specific conformations of this domain alone allow mitochondrial docking.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bax and Bak Coalesce into Novel Mitochondria-Associated Clusters during Apoptosis
TL;DR: The formation of Bax and Bak apoptotic clusters was found to be caspase independent and inhibited completely and specifically by Bcl-XL, correlating cluster formation with cytotoxic activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acidic dopamine metabolites are actively extruded from PC12 cells by a novel sulfonylurea-sensitive transporter.

TL;DR: Results show that acidic dopamine metabolites are actively secreted from dopaminergic cells into surrounding extracellular fluid by a previously undescribed transporter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of glipizide on dopamine synthesis, release and metabolism in PC12 cells.
Itschak Lamensdorf,Le-Ping He,Amotz Nechushtan,Judith Harvey-White,Graeme Eisenhofer,Rusnak Milan,Eduardo Rojas,Irwin J. Kopin +7 more
TL;DR: It was found that neither basal nor K(+)-stimulated dopamine release was affected, and functional K/ATP channels could not be demonstrated electrophysiologically, consistent with the lack of effect of glipizide on dopamine release.
